QUETTA:
An anti-terrorism court in Quetta rejected the bail plea of former dictator Pervez Musharraf in the Akbar Bugti murder case, Express News reported on Tuesday.
On June 10, non-bailable arrest warrants were issued by the court against Musharraf and former prime minister Shaukat Aziz in the case.
The arrest warrants were issued due to their repeated absence from the court. The former governor of Balochistan, Owais Ghani and former deputy commissioner of Dera Bugti, Samad Lasi were also included in the list of issued arrest warrants.
Baloch nationalist leader Bugti was killed in a cave on August 26, 2006 during a military crackdown ordered by Musharraf. Bugti was the chief of the Jamhoori Watan Party and an influential tribal chief who controlled the gas-rich district of Dera Bugti.

He is required to pay Rs0.5m as a surety bond to the court.
Musharraf is already under house arrest at his Chak Shahzad farmhouse on the outskirts of Islamabad after the Islamabad High Court approved his trial.
